Iga Świątek is quickly returning to the game and will now start in the WTA 1000 Cincinnati tournament. There was a chance that for the first time in his career he would play against the famous Venus Williams.

Iga Świątek quickly returns to the court after the Montreal tournament, which she finished in the semi-finals. The Pole swapped Canada for the United States and will compete in the WTA 1000 Cincinnati competition. She earned a first-round bye and her first opponent has yet to be announced.

It can be very interesting when the 22-year-old qualifies for the 1/8 finals. Then there is a chance he will face the women’s tennis legend on the court. Venus Williams took off in Cincinnati.

The 43-year-old American got off to a great start. In the first round, she confidently defeated Weronika Kudermietowa, who is currently the 16th racket in the world. The Russian lost in straight sets 4:6, 5:7.

What should happen for a clash between Świątek and Williams? Both players must win in the second round. The American will face the winner of the match Qinwen Zheng – Aliaksandra Sasnowicz. In turn, the Pole is waiting for who will win in the pair Danielle Collins – Anastazja Pawluczenkova.

The leader of the WTA rankings has never had the opportunity to test herself against Venus Williams. She was also not allowed to compete with her sister Serena.
